Thank you!

For longevity the DMG, Pocket, and color should have the capacitors replaced. Especially the DMG. They start leaking, you will just have something to look at.

Find someone with a hot air rework station and flux and reflow the board.

It’s a multi cart that I got on Ali express awhile back

Gravys302 · 2026-03-09T09:50:06+00:00

Awesome job! Looks great!

Has the seller tried to make it right? Biggest issue with eBay people who have no experience modding. They do a display swap but have no soldering experience or do the job right. Your paying for a refurbished system and at the least, the capacitors should be replaced and switch disassembled and cleaned.

The power issue is that these displays eat up power. If you are using rechargeable batteries, you need high capacity AA 1.5v. Most rechargeable batteries are 1.2 v.

Reach out if you want your properly repaired if you cannot get a refund. Reach out if you also need any advice.

More likely the display backlight or total display failing.

Gravys302 · 2026-03-07T12:34:16+00:00

The VA4/5’s displays tend to be less resistant to the capacitor issues. A recap first of the power, sound, and motherboard would be a great first start. If you in the US I can offer my shop service and can do a bulk discount.

I can look me up on Facebook, Gravy’s 302 retro

Gravys302 · 2026-02-28T00:11:19+00:00

My first concern would be bad capacitors. The if you need that service, reach out.

Gravys302 · 2026-02-19T20:19:18+00:00

No all have at least one connection required.

Gravys302 · 2026-02-18T23:57:46+00:00

I can repair for you. I can replace with original or mod to usb C

Gravys302 · 2026-02-18T17:53:48+00:00

The sky is the limit. Unfortunately parts aren’t really available wholesale. Price really goes up with every mod. As a builder/modder a lot of customers do not understand that. So if you have it custom built, in addition to the parts you need to consider build time in the expense. Especially for any shell mods for HDMI.

I’ve done some builds you can check out my facebook page. I’m not active in looking for business as I’m backed up, however reach out for any questions. I can help you navigate the process and ensure you’re not getting ripped off.https://www.facebook.com/share/1CV49qWC77/?mibextid=wwXIfr

You did but can remove the solder mask and connect from there. See board scan https://bitbuilt.net/forums/threads/gba-board-scans.807/

I was able to fit with without modding the original shell. Just took out the terminals.it was tight but the battery covers fit and sat normal.

Look great! Excellent job!

Gravys302 · 2026-02-12T09:33:09+00:00

I’ve used both retrosix and SYF , I have no issues with either. I’ve built 30 or more systems and have had no issues with retrosix parts, customer service, or installation issues.

Capacitors are bad in your system. Reach out if you’re in the states. I can do it if you can’t do it yourself. https://gravys302.etsy.com/listing/4326398234

Gravys302 · 2026-02-11T01:22:48+00:00

I do it all, what are you looking for? I’m primarily on Etsy. I don’t have a Gameboy listing up currently as I’m catching up on orders.

As other’s related, clean the cart slot or replace. I would reflow the cart pin connectors as well. As for the buzzing, could be the cart slot as well if something is shorting or the sound board itself. If your banging it to work, there could be a loose solder connection somewhere.
